This is a…read morecommunity event where those who have unused or old medication may drop it off to be disintegrated of properly so the medication will not be used illegally or sold. This is a wonderful idea as it advocates for cleaner water and streams (for those who place medication down sinks and waste ways). In addition, this event is a "no questions asked" event. I have been here before for other events such as the R.R.P.D summer camp for youth. My son has attended a week of camp here with the R.R.P.D. These week long camps are held every summer, are free to the public, and are ran by R.R.P.D. These summer camps stress the importance of teamwork, physical fitness and the importance of being a law abiding person. #backthebadge

He made conversation with me and he was friendly and funny. Asked where I was coming from and I told him I was in an Agatha Christie play at The Vortex where I was playing a Hungarian maid. He told me he was just giving me a warning "but I'll need to hear your Hungarian accent." I did a few lines from the show for him. And, not for nothing, but he was pretty easy on the eyes too. Five stars RRPD!! Would definitely get pulled over by them again.

My experience with the WilCo Healthcare Program was a limited but very unsavory one to say the…read moreleast. I applied for healthcare coverage but was denied based on the sole reason that I refused to allow WilCo Healthcare to retain photocopies of my identification documents which included my US Passport (it is illegal to copy federal ID though I was assured that they were well within their rights to do so). As a reasonable person, I offered what I feel to be a very acceptable alternative - I offered to produce all identification documents every time that I appear for services. As well, I further offered for the office staff to take a photograph of me to retain within my file. In consideration of this very reasonable alternative, I was still denied healthcare. When I questioned why it is that they needed to retain photocopies of my identification, they failed to provide a satisfactory reply. To paraphrase, they claimed that they needed to retain photocopies of my identification in order to identify me and allow for smooth billing with the insurance. Is it not the function of the presenting of identification to identify one's self? All that aside, I attempted to find out who the board members were for WilCo Healthcare. It was never revealed to me who the board members were or how I could communicate with them. My purpose was to ask them what they thought about my alternative concerning the retaining of identification. I wound up having a telephone conversation with the executive director, Caroline Hilbert. To her credit, she was civil during our conversations. I communicated my ideas to her. She claimed that she had presented my ideas to no avail and that I would not receive healthcare. At that point, I asked Caroline if I could merely get something in writing to that effect; that way, I would have proof if questioned by other agencies that I may attempt to seek aid from. Mrs. Hilbert agreed and stated that it shouldn't be any problem to do so. I thanked her and went about my business. We'd had a reasonable conversation without any nastiness. 29 Jun 2023, I received an email out of turn from someone that I'd not spoken to in the situation regarding WilCo Healthcare. Her name is Tara Jempty. She claimed to be the director over the WilCo Healthcare Program which didn't make sense to me as I thought I'd been speaking with the director already. She furthermore stated, "...We require specific identification and storage of said identification for participation in the Wilco Care program...This practice will continue to be a requirement of the program so that we can prevent fraud and process medical claims for Wilco." Thus, began the sound of gaslighting by a woman with a behavioral health license within the state of Texas that, at the time I checked, was expired. Her reply was, "There is no denial at this point in time. You have not applied through the required process and you made it clear that you do not wish to complete the application process, therefore there is nothing to deny. The compliance on your part is required to attain services. If you choose not to do that, then the responsibility lies solely within your decision." I actually did fill out an application and was in correspondence with an agent within WilCo Healthcare. Eventually, Caroline Hilbert got involved in the email. She stated, "...She (Tara Jempty), myself, and our legal advisor have discussed your concern at length, however, in order to be accountable stewards of the funds that are provided for this program by the County, we have required and will continue to require the retaining of identification copies for application submission and participation in WilcoCare." How would my alternative prevent anyone from being an accountable steward of funding? Nobody seems to be able to answer that. What about the safety and security of my identity? Through my efforts to obtain aid through WilCo Healthcare, I have been met with suspicious and unethical behavior not becoming of employees that are supposed to be held to a higher standard. This is why I filed a complaint with the TX Dept. of Licensing & Reg. against Tara Jempty for unethical behavior. How ethical is it to email an indigent person unprompted using a tone which I perceive to be gaslighting? How ehtical is it to deny someone who fits the very description of the people this program is charged with providing care for? How shameful... *Please, refer to the website for the "Mission" and "Guiding Principles" regarding the Williamson County and Cities Health District - https://www.wcchd.org/about/index.php

Originally named Brushy, Round Rock (RR) got its official name in 1854. The name was given in…read morerecognition of the large round rock that is located in Brushy Creek. This large round rock served as a guide for the Natives and Early Settlers by marking a very important low water wagon crossing. Today, the wagon wheel ruts are still visible in the area which played a key role in the Chisholm Trail Also known to some as the Round Rizzle (or Da Rizzle), it has become the second fastest growing city in Texas. Da Rizzle has one main street where you will find several eateries and bars. RR plays host to live music at venues like Juniors and The Brass Tap, just to name a couple. In front of City Hall you will find a splash pad, and, a stage for live music acts. Also, along the small stretch of Main St, you will see creative art sculptures that you will find pleasing to the eye. Da Rizzle isn't all about what you will find along Main Street. Heaven's no. RR is growing so fast it's hard to keep up with it all. Lots of nice eateries along 620, Gattis School, I35 corridor, especially in the I35/1431 area. There you will find lots of shopping and eating. I could list a bunch of businesses in this review, but, it's more exciting to venture out on your own and find your flavor. Da Rizzle carries its own unique vibe to the surrounding area. It is surrounded by fast growing communities like Georgetown, Pflugerville, and, Austin. All of which have an interesting history. Like the Capital city, RR hosts it's own festivals, just not near as many. Whatever vibe you're looking for in a Suburban City, you're bound to find something to fit your fancy in Da Rizzle.
